I am doing a photography website for my cousin Cory. She currently does a lot of child photography and has gotten to the point where she needs a website and business cards. The logical first step is to get a professional logo designed, and then that will be the starting point for the website.
Her main focus is child photography, but she doesn't necessarily want to seem too child like with the design. She also does:
animal shots
landscape shots
weddings
Open to how that looks (all on one line, broken up into different lines, photo/photograhy, Cory/CoryAnn, etc)

In looking through some of the contests on 99designs already, there are some awesome designs.http://99designs.com/contests/21010http://99designs.com/contests/21046
She wants a contemporary look and feel. Not cold, but warm and inviting colors with a contemporary touch. Elegant and simple, with a feminine design. She is open on fonts and colors, but likes purples and black. The logo should be adaptable and able to be used as a watermark, on business cards, on fliers, etc.
